Ingredients
1 packet (340g) of Plant-Based Protein Banana Bread
3 large overripe bananas (approx. 300g)
1/4 cup ( 60ml) 60 melted butter or coconut oil
Extra banana to decorate (optional)
Important tip
Like other banana bread recipes, you’ll get the best tasting loaf by using overripe bananas – brown and spotty are ideal!
Recipe tweak
Add 100g of chopped walnuts for a beautiful banana and walnut loaf.
Directions
2Preheat a fan-forced oven to 160°C and line a small loaf tin (9cm x 20cm) with baking paper, or use a silicone loaf tin. Using a fork, roughly mash the banana in a bowl.
3Empty the packet of banana bread mix into a large bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs, melted butter/oil, milk and mashed banana.
4Pour the wet mix into the dry mix and gently fold until just combined.
5Pour the batter into the lined loaf tin. Use a spatula to ensure no mixture is wasted.
6Spread out the mixture and decorate with extra banana (optional)
7Place on the top shelf of pre-heated oven and bake for 70 minutes. Check with a skewer and if needed, bake for another 10 minutes. After baking, remove from tin and place on cooling rack.
Chill & Slice
1Protein Banana Bread must chill for at least 2 hours before slicing with a sharp serrated bread knife. For best results we recommend chilling overnight, wrapped in a tea towel before slicing.
Storage
1Protein Banana Bread must be stored in the fridge (1-4°C) for up to 5 days, or in the freezer (-18°C) in sandwich bags for up to 3 months.
